Speak to an Advisor

A business license is an official approval that allows a company to conduct certain business activities in Indonesia. Depending on the company’s risk level and sector, the requirement may include NIB, standard certificate, business license, or supporting permits.

It depends on the company’s business activity and risk classification. Low-risk activities may only need NIB, while medium-risk and high-risk activities may require standard certificates, verified approvals, business licenses, or additional sectoral permits.

OSS, or Online Single Submission, is Indonesia’s integrated system for business licensing. Companies use OSS to obtain NIB, submit licensing applications, update business data, and manage certain business licensing requirements.

KBLI is Indonesia’s business activity classification system. The selected KBLI affects the company’s permitted business scope, foreign ownership eligibility, risk level, and required licenses.

Common requirements include company legal documents, tax registration details, business activity description, KBLI information, address documents, OSS access, and sector-specific documents. Additional technical documents may be required for regulated industries.

The timeline depends on the business activity, risk level, document readiness, and whether verification or sectoral approval is required. Low-risk licensing may be faster, while medium-high and high-risk activities can take longer due to authority review.

Yes. A PT PMA can apply for business licenses in Indonesia, provided the business activity is allowed for foreign investment and the company meets the applicable capital, ownership, KBLI, and sector requirements.
